Outside the palace, the shadows of the trees were swaying. Madam Lu ordered the maid to boil water. Xiao Guanzi looked at her and spoke respectfully, "Madam Lu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to hand over the food in my hand to the Crown Princess. You need to assist me on the side."

"The Crown Princess is a kind person, so you have to act like a bad person in front of others. You must not let down the Crown Princess's dignity. But there is one thing you have to remember. You are also an old man in the East Palace. Nothing can be crossed. The Crown Princess is still the Crown Princess after all."

This was a blatant warning. There were also examples of servants bullying their masters in the palace. Aunt Lu's old face was full of panic. "Don't worry, Eunuch Guan. I can save it."

Inside the palace, He Yue thought she had gotten away with it tonight and could get her private money back.

She broke away from Ning Rushong's arms and half stood up. She had a beautiful figure, and she looked even more graceful sitting like this. Her long hair was loose and a little messy, so she hooked the loose hair and tucked it behind her ears.

With black hair and red lips, and beautiful face like willow and peach, what an extraordinary appearance.

Ning Rusong, who was lying on his side, stretched out his slender hands to hook up a few strands of her long hair that hung down to her waist. When He Yue turned her confused and bewildered eyes to him, he said slowly, "He Yue, if you have your period, Madam Lu will record it in the book."

"Your excuse is this." Ning Rusong let go of her hair and saw He Yue's face stiffen. "It's really not well-written."

"I just arrived, and Madam Lu doesn't know yet." He Yue smiled frankly again. His reaction was so quick that it didn't seem fake.

Ning Rushong snorted and laughed, a hint of coldness on his handsome face. His eyes examined her beautiful face inch by inch, like a god sitting high in the clouds, examining the foolish mortal who tried to struggle.

"I have a different kind of affection for you than ordinary people, but that's not something you can use to fool me." Ning Rushong's tone was light and gentle, but his voice became colder and colder, and the blood in He Yue's body seemed to freeze as well.

He Yue naturally knew that he did not have any strong love for her. Most of it was a desire for exclusivity, the possession of a superior over an inferior. How could a cold-hearted man like him have any true feelings?

He Yue forced a smile, leaned forward slightly, and leaned into Ning Rusong's arms, saying in a gentle voice, "I am just not used to it for the time being. I want to wait a few days before doing it. It's not that I don't want to."

Ning Rushong turned over and He Yue was gently pressed under him. She looked at Ning Rushong's dark eyes and knew that she could not escape today.

She stretched out her arms, trembling slightly, and wrapped them around Ning Rusong's neck. She raised her head slightly and kissed his cold thin lips. Then she buried her face in his chest, and said in a shy voice, "I hope Your Highness will have pity on me."

She is a coward. She has never even thought about the situation of being destroyed or having to fight to the death. She has always been a person who goes with the flow and is content with her fate.

Ning Rusong pinched her slender waist and lifted her up, then kissed her lips. He liked to see her shy look...

Behind the bed curtains, Ning Rushong's usually cold voice suddenly contained a hint of joy.

"You should have told me that you are a perfect woman, so you should be equipped with a Yuanpa!"

"Tell the palace maid to cut this quilt and present it to us tomorrow."

"He Yue, you are alone."

…………

Outside the palace, Nanny Lu had a smile on her face. If the Crown Princess could give birth to a legitimate son, her position would be more secure. Ever since she was assigned to be the Crown Princess's nanny, they had been tied to the same rope. Naturally, she hoped for the best for the Crown Princess.

When the concubines of the Eastern Palace knew that the Crown Prince was staying in the Biyuan, they immediately sent people to inquire about it. When they learned that the Crown Prince was still calling for water in the middle of the night, they were so jealous that they smashed a lot of things!

The next day, when Ning Rushong woke up, he saw He Yue's little face with traces of tears, and his heart was filled with ripples. He had indeed overexerted himself last night.

He stood up, opened the bed curtain, went to the other side of the screen, called the palace maid in, and after seeing Madam Lu, he ordered, "Let the Crown Princess sleep. She was tired yesterday."

Madam Lu smiled widely, "Yes, Your Highness."

Ning Rushong also ordered that the bed quilt be cut into pieces and presented as a Yuan handkerchief.

Ma Lu was stunned for a while. Wasn’t the Crown Princess a woman who had married twice?

Seeing the Crown Prince looking at her unexpectedly, Nanny Lu quickly responded, "Yes, Your Highness."

After Ning Rushong was helped to dress up by the palace servants, he walked out of the Biyuan. He felt relieved and relaxed in his heart.

It's the kind of relaxation that emanates from every bone, the joy of a fish entering the sea.

It was indeed the right decision to bring He Yue back to the Eastern Palace. Isn’t he getting his reward now?

After He Yue stood up, she felt extremely sore all over. She let Xiao Taozi and another palace maid help her wash and change her clothes. During this time, she did not ask Ning Rushong a single question.

She hoped that Ning Rushong would never appear in Biyuan again. How could he be so troublesome?

At this time, two young eunuchs each held a beautiful jade box and knelt in front of He Yue, "Your servant greets the Crown Princess. This is given to you by the Crown Prince. He said it is the private money you requested last night."

When the jade box was opened, one was found to be filled with silver notes with a face value of 1,000 taels, about 100,000 taels in total, and the other was filled with exquisite gold melon seeds and the like, not to mention the value of the jade box itself.

He Yue snorted coldly and said with great backbone, "Xiao Taozi, take it."

Why shouldn’t she take her hard work pay? This is what she deserves.

Xiao Taozi accepted the jade box and the young eunuch retreated respectfully.

There was some noise coming from the outer hall, and a palace maid came in and reported, "Greetings to the Crown Princess, outside are the ladies of the East Palace, they come to pay their respects."

He Yue waved her hand, with a look of fatigue between her brows, "Tell them that I am tired today, so I don't need to pay my respects today."

I keep asking for your greetings, but the more you ask, the more uneasy I feel.

"Yes, Crown Princess." The palace maid went out to pass on the message.
